Salvation is now offered to EVERYONE as a free gift from God, Ephesians 2:9.

You and the Calvinist are in denial of the Gospel. Salvation always has been and always will be by grace through faith. No works or obedience required.

False comments no where found in scripture !

"... I have my own private opinion that there is no such a thing as
preaching Christ and him crucified, unless you preach what now-a-days is
called Calvinism. I have my own ideas, and those I always state boldly. It is
a nickname to call it Calvinism; Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else."

The scripture remains, "God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself" 2 Corinthians 5:19.

Jesus is God's reconciler. In our name and on our behalf Jesus has fulfilled God's holy law, Matthew 5:18 and has abolished it, Ephesians 2:15. In our name and on our behalf, Jesus has atoned for our sins and the sins of the whole world, 1 John 2:2. So that now... "Whosoever that shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved" Romans 10:13.

According to you ISIS is reconciled to God and they just don't know yet?

Why are they imploring people to be reconciled to God if they already are?

Man give up your false beliefs.

Specifically who is Paul imploring in the context ?

"... I have my own private opinion that there is no such a thing as
preaching Christ and him crucified, unless you preach what now-a-days is
called Calvinism. I have my own ideas, and those I always state boldly. It is
a nickname to call it Calvinism; Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else."

"... I have my own private opinion that there is no such a thing as
preaching Christ and him crucified, unless you preach what now-a-days is
called Calvinism. I have my own ideas, and those I always state boldly. It is
a nickname to call it Calvinism; Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else."

You better dig far into your heart to submit because God doesn't save people who don't.

2 Cor 5:18,19,20

18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

He was imploring them already reconciled, vs 18-19 prove it

"... I have my own private opinion that there is no such a thing as
preaching Christ and him crucified, unless you preach what now-a-days is
called Calvinism. I have my own ideas, and those I always state boldly. It is
a nickname to call it Calvinism; Calvinism is the gospel, and nothing else."

That goes to show you that the Gospel is foolishness to some people. Nevertheless Paul was speaking to the already reconciled.

God has already done all that he can do for the salvation of fallen man.

Jesus in our name and on our behalf has fulfilled the law, Matthew 5:18 and abolished it, Ephesians 2:15 and in our name and on our behalf has reconciled us and the world unto God, 2 Corinthians 5:18, 19. All that is required of us is to accept what has already been provided for us as a free gift from God, Ephesians 2:8.

No one needs to be predestinated. No one needs to obey the law. No one needs to join the Catholic church. In Jesus Christ we have been justified, sanctified and redeemed, 1 Corinthians 1:30. We are perfect and complete "In Christ" Colossians 2:10.

Jesus has done it all and he did it perfectly. Renounce your worthless religion, your works, your obedience to the law, Calvinism and trust in Christ alone. When you do, God will give you his Holy Spirit and you will be born again, 1 Peter 1:23.

I refuse, point blank, to speak peace to the unregenerate, hypocrites, religious dogma lovers and those that oppose the following statement:A regenerate man trusts in the evangelism of salvation conditioned on the atoning blood and imputed justness of Messiah alone.
If you are fully persuaded, by experience, of this delightful, beautiful and life giving doctrine then I love you as a brother.

Anyone who thinks that salvation is conditioned on anything a man thinks, does or says is atheist. I cannot and will not speak peace to him or her.

I don't make statements online that I wouldn't repeat in front of my Maker, my grandmother or a judge.
